Welcome to my genealogy blog. Genea-Musings features genealogy research tips and techniques, genealogy news items and commentary, genealogy humor, San Diego genealogy society news, family history research and some family history stories from the keyboard of Randy Seaver (of Chula Vista CA), who thinks that Genealogy Research Is really FUN!

Nathaniel Wade (1648-1707) died 28 November 1707. He married Mercy Bradstreet (1647-1715) in 1672 in Andover, Massachusetts. They had six children living at the time Nathaniel Wade wrote his will on 12 June 1707. All six children are named as heirs in the will.There are no records of a probate by the executor, Mercy (Bradstreet) Wade, who died in 1715. Son Samuel Wade was appointed administrator in 1714, the will was proved on 3 November 1714, but the estate was not settled until 1724. By that time, son Jonathan Wade was deceased. The probate case file has a number of receipts for debts owed by Nathaniel Wade, several accounts filed by Samuel Wade, but no inventory. The accounts are very difficult to read.Nathaniel Wade (1648-1707) is my 8th great-grandfather. I descend through his son Jonathan Wade (1683-1720), who married Mary Dolberry in about 1701.

NOTE: Genea-blogger John Newmark (who writes the excellent TransylvanianDutch blog) started a Monday blog theme years ago called "Amanuensis Monday." John offers this definition for "amanuensis:"

"A person employed to write what another dictates or to copy what has been written by another."
